About this ebook
INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • A deadly secret resurfaces at summer camp in this thriller from #1 bestselling author Natasha Preston, where two former campers return as counselors-in-training only to discover the lake remembers everything.
Esme and Kayla once were campers at Camp Pine Lake. Now they’re back as counselors-in-training. Esme loves the little girls in her cabin and thinks it’s funny how scared they are of everything—the woods, the bugs, the boys...even swimming in the lake. It reminds her of how she and Kayla used to be. Before...
Because Esme and Kayla did something terrible when they were campers. Something they’ve kept a secret all these years. They vow that this summer will be awesome. Two months of sun, s’mores, and flirting with the cute boy counselors. But then they get a message:
THE LAKE NEVER FORGETS.
The secret they’ve kept buried for so many years is about to resurface.
“[T]he strong buildup…leads to a shockingly satisfying finale. An eerie thriller reminiscent of summer horror movies that will keep readers on edge.”—Kirkus
"Pays homage to classic summer camp slasher films...horror fans will likely appreciate this paranoia-fueled tale."—Publishers Weekly

Possibly one of the best YA thrillers I've read in a while! It kept me invested and I wasn't expecting the ending at all! Yes the language can be a bit cheesy at times but it's meant to be its a YA book meant for teens not adults with no life
